Moving to Github?

[Dirkjan Ochtman]

Addressing this separately.

I'm still not a big fan of Git, but I've seen that Github is pretty
nice. If there's a majority of people here who would prefer to move
the project there, I'm happy to cooperate with that. If such a
consensus would emerge, it would be great if someone could contribute
a high-fidelity conversion of the repository (and preferably the
issues, as well!) to Git/Github.

Cheers,

Best thing about Github is the pull request workflow. No point moving
there unless pull reviews are supported.

Hi,

I'm have nothing against GitHub, but what about Bitbucket? It also has
pull requests, commits and source reviewing and more same things that
GitHub have, but it doesn't requires migration from hg to git.

I don't have an informed opinion (I've only used github, so I can't
compare with bitbucket), but I've been using github here at work for a
couple years now, and have been very pleased. I'd advocate for using
github for any project looking to move to a DVCS (ie. coming from
csv/svn). It looks like bitbucket has a very similar feature set, and
not having to migrate out of Hg is probably a killer feature.

Thinking about this more, I think that the killer feature for GitHub
is the network effect, not so much the specific DVCS used, etc.

However, I also think that spending a lot of effort on something that
doesn't actually get the project closer to releasing 0.9 doesn't seem
like a good use of energy right now. As long as we've got active
owners/committers on the project, I think migration would be a
distraction. Just MHO, of course.

Sounds about right.

Agreed. I prefer Git to Mercurial, and github to Google Code, but I don't think it's worth moving right now.
